Necrono's Blog (24)

I'll be leaving Facebook over this.

They censored my sharing, from a reputable news source, an important story about an ethnic minority that had to change their religion to accommodate globalist, economic factors. I think I was censored because of photographs of the locals. As an anthropologist and pagan, I'm furious.

I sometimes find that Neo-paganism is a stepping stone for Christians on their way to Atheism.  Certainly, one of the most monumental moments from my early days was letting go of the Christian belief -- not in the idea of God or prayer, but in context of my relationship to the world. Prime example:  If we reincarnate, my mother isn't "my" mother.  In Christianity, she only has one go around, and I am her child.  She may not be my mother next time, and I might not be her son.  Severing the…

A real take away for me was attaching my sun-sign, Taurus, with a new totem.  I was presented with an image of a stout, broad animal with some kind of spike, and it came to me in several forms: Bull was in their, but also warthog and, most-notably, Rhinoceros.

BOYCOTT BP GASOLINE

The BP refinery in Indiana is dumping Mercury, and wants to dump more ammonia and suspended solids into Lake Michigan, one of the largest fresh water resources in the United States. On top of this, The Indiana Department of Environmental Management's office in Northwest Indiana has stopped fining agencies that violate their environmental permits.
